Could anyone tell me if there are headhunters out there to help attorneys who just came out of law school?
I found a lot of headhunters on line but they seem to be interested only in experienced lawyers.
Also, are there headhunters specialized in international people, for international placement? Any thoughts?
I appreciate your help!! |

Start with your law school career services center - many employers post open positions there. Next, start building a networking database of every single person you have ever known in your entire life - classmates, high school/college job managers, parents friends and contacts. Send them law school graduation announcements and follow up with a phone call. Contact your college/undergrad classmates and friends - they work for corporations, right? Let them know you are a new law school grad and let them know you are looking.
Don't count on a headhunter to jump start your career - you have to do it yourself. Get in the networking and research habit now - it will ensure your future employment for the rest of your working life.
BEST OF LUCK!!!!
